Hehe i'm on my 6th time back playing it! Mean I already quit 5 times. I also really think exit #6 is coming up real soon, getting bored as a board already and only been playing 10 days.

I'm still not over it. I'm having withdrawal symptoms waiting for 2.1.0 to download :p

yay coming back to WoW. Except, I don't know what to roll. Debating between: hunter, warrior, druid or.... mage. What do you guys think? I want to pvp mainly, and I normally do solo pvp in the BGs. Maybe some 10 man raids and definetely heroics. I don't think I will have time for 25 man raids (maybe grull and mag).

Anyone have the MD5 sum for the 2.012 to 2.1 ENGB patch? I'm downloading from a mirror and I'd like to check against someone else

59FAB75B61B911C53104F6BF3CD044A9 wow-partial-2.MPQ

That is all I can do for you. The Blizzard downloader downloaded that. :p

Edit: More coming apparently. Since I don't have an active subscription I haven't really bothered with patching any more than put the background downloader on. Don't want any 385 meg surprises when I start playing again. ;P

I think choice between those characters depends on where you want to be in a battle and the level of armor you want. Personally, I've been happiest with a Mage as I love the power of the magic they wield and like standing back in a battle, and have my main character as one. Only drawback of Mages is the lack of armor but being able to teleport between cities (for you or a group you're in) and conjure up water and food (saving buying them), as well as having the most destructive magic makes them my favorite character. Hunters and warriors are also great fun, but I like magic more than hand weapons.

Mages are great, but what do I know I have played one for 3yrs now :p

Hunters are awesome for PvP and level extremely fast, problem is they were not needed for alot of end game instances. Which sucked, but supposedly 2.1 was going to address that.

Druids: I love my druid, so fun to have a real option. Play a healer, and sit back and just heal all day, or play a warrior or rogue in cat/bear forms.. They are pretty easy to level considering the different forms, and the ability to heal yourself, but can get expensive on the armor side since you need to find 2 to 3 different sets of armor depending on what you want to do at the time. Great Hybrid though, and alot of fun to play.

I think I will make a mage. They are always wanted for DPS and CC and I do not like healing that much (hated it on my priest), and I don't know how wanted a cat druid would be.

Thanks for the help guys. Also, what spec would you recommend for a mage while leveling up? I got a mage to 34 or so previously, but I got bored as I just keep AOE grinding with frost.

I've tried twice, never reached level 40... mage is by far the most boring class ever made. :p

Feral druids can tank and tanks are rare. They're great through Karazhan (unless your horde where Nightbane > tremor totem). Past that the abilities of warriors make them prefered raid tanks. For all 5-man content druids are top tier. As DPS they are also quiet respectable assuming they're well played. Losing some CC sucks but that really doesn't matter until you're doing harder heroics anyway.

5/5 Arcane Missiles then go down frost for solo play. Frost bolt -> Arcane Missiles spam is brutally effective at low levels. It took me about 3 days played to get to 39 using something like this. Not ideal, but it did the job.

A 40 I started grouping with friends for instances regularly so I went full fire to spam scorch. With 150-200 spell damage at level 50?€”PvP rewards + a couple "of fiery wrath" greens and a couple of tailored pieces?€”I'm able to grind and group effectively.

In a couple of more levels we'll be heading to Outland and I'm thinking that a 3-minute mage build with spell power is the way to go as I expect a fair bit of PvP this time around.

In Burning Crusade Feral Druids are most popular, but really only for one thing: Tanking. (This is apparently all we can do if were Feral, not like myself doing decent DPS;)nd Off Healing) ;) My character JMann (70 Druid) I like to think I have 3 very decent sets of gear one for each type (Healing, DPS, Tanking) I have just started Karazhan got to the 3rd Boss Maiden at the moment and I am usually tanking and get the slight DPS spots sometimes.

<:) />Druids ftw. :)

Best Server, but still way to many Gold spammers. ;)

speaking off Gold spammers.. How is it now with the patch?

I had a buddy tell me yesterday that he got about 6, when I am on the same server and got 0.

I know usually in a normal day "pre-patch" I got around 25-30 gold spams

Not having much time to play anymore, but I will keep an eye out for them. ;)

    • ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE keyboard is 27% off on Amazon by Ivan Jenic The ASUS ROG Falchion Ace 75 HE is currently $159.99 on Amazon, down from $219.99. That's 27% off and $60 saved on a keyboard that combines retro and modern design, while being one of the most responsive and adaptable 75% boards available right now (purchase link down below). The ROG Falchion Ace comes with the HFX V2X magnetic switches that allow you to set actuation anywhere between 0.1mm and 3.5mm with 0.01mm fine-tuning steps. It also comes with Rapid Trigger, a feature that resets the key the moment you release it rather than waiting for a fixed reset point, which makes a noticeable difference in fast-paced games. And finally, an 8,000Hz polling rate should make the response time feel instant. The build quality is decent, with dense plastic and powder-coated aluminum, which is expected from a keyboard at this price point. There’s also the onboard adjustment wheel, which lets you tweak actuation and Rapid Trigger sensitivity without opening any software. For competitive gaming, the ROG Falchion Ace is hard to beat at this price. And those who appreciate old-school hardware, especially those white keyboards we’ve all grown up with, will likely also appreciate the looks of this keyboard. A carry case is included.
